I definitely agree. And I am disgusted by the English pronunciation of this word. Pyoo-uh-suhnt? Ew.

Means 'powerful' in French, right? Doesn't look or sound powerful to me. It looks like the least powerful word I can think of, except maybe 'pantuflas' (the Spanish word for 'slippers'). It looks more like 'piss-ant' than anything, and we all know those aren't powerful.
